The damage

April 23, 2016

The lies, the shortcuts, the deceit is not without its damage. It looks harmless on the outside, makes for a quick seeming relief, works for a smart defence as it were. Of course time will wash off the coat, but it will leave behind damage. Somewhere something will be left behind deeply distorted, destroyed, marred. And it was all needless, for the simple truth could have left in its wake limitless life in place of the lie’s putrefying death. Choose life. Choose honesty. Choose truth. Coz a lie is not without its consequences.
